We are taking a blogcation for a while. We do not really know for how long. Mom has been overwhelmed at work and there have been so many sad goodbyes in the Cat Blogosphere lately that have taken an emotional toll on Mom as well.
We have enjoyed getting to know all of you and being part of such a wonderful community of kitties over this past year. It has brought us more joy and laughter and sadness and tears than we ever could have imagined.
Don't worry, we'll be lurking every now and then.
With great fondness,


My mom says she understands completely. Sometimes, you just gotta take a break. Help your mom rest, okay?

PS great photo.
We'll miss you lots, but we know taking a break is just what is needed at times. Hope you do "lurk in" to visit us sometimes!
ReplyDeleteMindy, Moe, Bono
We will miss you greatly! You were one of this first to visit our blog. Enjoy your rest but come visit us every now and then! Come by and see my new brother!
ReplyDeleteEnjoy your rest. You will be missed! You guys are two of the coolest cats I know!
ReplyDeleteKiddo
Awwww... We will miss you guys very much! You have been one of our favorite furry-friends to come visit every day! Even PB---who is usually very nonchalant about the whole thing, usually sits right next to me and purrs when I come to your site.
ReplyDeleteBut we totally understand! It really is overwhelming! We are just happy we got to meet you and hope you come back and lurk whenever you need smiles, floof and kitty bellies!
((((((((Gandalf and Grayson))))))))) We Ballicai love you and we've loved yur bloggie. We'll miss you. Momma's been furry buzzy and hasn't been able to help us as much with our bloggie, so we unnerstand needin a break. We hope you come back, and you two are just such handsum, adorable mancats -- Mom is saying SQUEE and she's a little misty eyed and sending both of you and yur Momma great big huggies.
ReplyDeleteKittyhugs and purrs from MaoMao!

We are saddened by this news because we don't know what we would have done without all of you, our dear friends, both through joyous and sad times. We want to thank you for your friendship, and for all the fun you have brought us so far, and we hope that you will be back again very soon. We will be here, waiting for you.

Oh no! We will miss all your lovely photos. We can understand the need for a break though and we hope you will come back again.Thank you for letting everybody know because it is always worrying when somebody goes without saying anything.We are still very worried about Dragonheart and Merlin because it seems so out of character for them to just go.We hope they are all right.
ReplyDeleteAnyway ((((((hugs)))))) to all of you. Don't forget to pop in and visit us now and again. Enjoy your break and recharge your batteries and we hope to see you back blogging again one day.

We totally understand your need for a break. You two guys and your Mom are some of the heartiest and friendly blogging cats/humans we know. You make a lot of cats and humans happy with your visits and we know that making all those visits and taking on board all the other goings on in and around the CB can leave you exhausted.
ReplyDeleteWe'd like to thank you for sharing your lives with us with your lovely blog. It's a good'un that's for sure.
Enjoy your break, take good care of yourselves and we hope you do come back when you are all ready and happy to.
We'll still drop by to see you.

We'll miss seeing you, but breaks are really helpful at times. Hope you can relax and recharge.
ReplyDeleteBig purrs from Franklin the Grey, and the rest of us too, of course!
Wow we sure will miss you, but we understand. Mommy has taken a little break by not posting and commenting as much because it was messing with our healthy time.
ReplyDeleteSmoochies to you and please come visit every once in a while.
Enjoy your break...but you know we'll be going through grey boy withdrawal...I understand...my mom was totally overwhelmed with work this past week and then she got a "hack" cold. I think someday we might only blog several times a week...but with 7 cats and a dog...we are still fighting for equal time if you know what I mean. We love that you've shared your lives with us and we hope you continue to do so because you are all a part of our lives now.
ReplyDeleteWe hope your time away is lovely, and that things calm down a bit for you. Don't stay away too long, we will miss you!

ReplyDeleteGandalf and Grayson, we love you guys and will miss you during your break. We know how our Moms can be overwhelmed at work, we have posted the same thing more than once about ours because we want all of our furriends to know we are not disappearing.

ReplyDeleteBut we will miss you lots and really hope you come back soon - even if you only post now and then. We love comparing you both to Alfie - 'cos he is grey and he sees you as his role models. He is particularly gutted to read this.
We will keep you on our blogroll friends and keep checking on you every few days.
Take care G & G - we love you!
i hope your mom enjoys her time off.
ReplyDeleteI understand completely, and I hope you enjoy your time away and I know you will return when you are ready. God bless.
ReplyDeleteI have a kitty named Jack who looks just like Grayson. I have the worst time photographing him to look as beautiful in photos as he is in real life. Kudos to you for that.
ReplyDeleteOh gosh we're going to miss you!! We understand though, times get busy and the beans need to focus on their own lives for a bit. We've certainly been there before! Whenever you come back we'll be here!
